I love this quote that has been circulating around Facebook. For me, I normally collaborate and listen. But, what will also trigger me to start singing Ice, Ice Baby is when someone says, "Turn off the headlights."
I am notorious for breaking into song on a regular basis. A simple few words can invoke a performance. Here are just a few that had me singing this past week. (Click on the phrase to start the song from the exact location. I embeded the videos as well, if the link doesn't work for you.)
Don’t worry - I think this one gets many of us
This is a story - NPR gets me every time.
Why you gotta be startin’ somethin' - Ok confession, I only use this expression because of this song. I have small children; this is said a lot.
I can’t stand it - I can't quite remember why this came up, but I'm sure it was one of those nails/chalkboard moments.
Kill the headlights - I was parked outside of the University where my husband works, and was waiting on him to walk out. I said, "I should kill the headlights" --and then of course the song follows.
This happens to me all the time. What phrases make you break into song?
Geez, some of these songs bring me a LOT of memories. :)
